Episode 1720: Leo Babauta shares a powerful approach to achieving goals through short, focused sprints that cut through procrastination and overwhelm. By committing fully for a limited time and eliminating distractions, you create momentum and clarity that longer-term efforts often lack. Quotes to ponder: "A sprint is a short burst of intense focus, eliminating distractions and excuses." "It's about creating a sacred space of time where you are completely devoted to something meaningful."

Oliver Burkeman's latest book, "Meditations for Mortals: Four Weeks to Embrace Your Limitations and Make Time for What Counts," is a guide to embracing what he calls the imperfect life. It's the realization that you're never going to sort your life out. So instead of attempting that futile task day after day and viewing your limitations as a human as obstacles to a meaningful life, you embrace them. In our conversation, Oliver and I dig into some common misconceptions about the human condition, why existing in the modern world asks so much of us, and how and why we must take action admist uncertainty.

What if your nervous system didn't believe it was safe to want something just for you? In Episode 138 of Medium Lady Talks, Erin is joined by life coach Cecelia Mandryk (@ceceliabmandryk) to continue our series on How to Take Care of Yourself. Together, they explore the difference between dopamine-driven quick fixes and the courageous work of sustained self-care. Cecelia offers powerful tools and reframes that help high-functioning people make their minds a calmer, safer place to be. Erin and Cecelia talk about: Why identifying what YOU want can feel threatening when you've learned to meet everyone else's expectations How our culture of outrage keeps us stuck—and how to move from reactivity to empowered action A step-by-step walk-through of tending to your nervous system when you're feeling overwhelmed or angry The magic of nervous system regulation (even when your brain tells you it won't work) Why the actions you take from empowerment might look the same as outrage-driven ones—but feel completely different ✨ “You can't choose something better until you know what you're choosing.” — this quote from Cecelia hit me hard and stayed with me. You'll also hear: A grounded reminder from Walt Whitman that it's okay to be a contradiction My frustration with the way self-care has been co-opted by consumerism—and how Cecelia helped me reframe that into compassion A call to reclaim self-care as simple, nourishing, and deeply powerful This is a conversation for anyone feeling burned out, stuck in rage or fear, or unsure how to move forward without losing themselves.

Here are five practical ways to slow down and savor life, helping you create more balance, joy, and mindfulness in your personal and entrepreneurial journey. Life moves FAST, doesn't it? If we're not careful, we get swept up in the hustle, always chasing the next thing, and suddenly, we realize we haven't truly enjoyed our days. I've been there, pushing, striving, and forgetting to pause. But this year, I'm making a conscious effort to slow down, reflect, and soak in life's little joys. If you're feeling stretched thin, you are NOT alone. Let's do this together! Here are five ways we can all slow down and savor life. Action Plan: 1 - Prioritize What Matters Most: Do a time audit, set boundaries, and make sure your daily actions reflect what's truly important. 2 - Be Mindful in the Present Moment: Take a deep breath, engage your senses, and stop letting distractions pull you away from what really matters. 3 - Simplify Your Day: Clear the clutter from your schedule, cut out unnecessary tasks, and create routines that bring ease instead of stress. 4 - Make Time for Joyful Activities: Schedule FUN into your week, say "yes" to spontaneous moments, and do the things that fill your cup. 5 - Practice Gratitude for the Small Things:  Keep a gratitude journal, notice the little joys in each day, and share your appreciation with others.

In this episode of The Art of Charm, we sit down with bestselling author and productivity renegade Oliver Burkeman to unpack his refreshingly honest approach to time, ambition, and self-worth. Drawing from his latest book Meditations for Mortals, Oliver introduces a new philosophy he calls Imperfectionism — a radical shift from hustle culture and perfection paralysis. We discuss the psychology of high achievers who constantly feel behind, the traps of productivity debt, and how letting go of perfection can paradoxically lead to real momentum, deeper relationships, and a more meaningful life. If you're constantly stuck between ambition and exhaustion, trying to “optimize” your way into fulfillment, this conversation might just be the permission slip you didn't know you needed. What to Listen For [00:00] Why all decisions come with a downside — and why that's freeing [00:03:55] What is “Imperfectionism,” and how can it help you escape productivity traps? [00:08:05] How comparison and perfectionism stop you from building meaningful connections [00:13:52] Why authenticity beats polish — in branding, leadership, and life [00:22:46] “Productivity debt” — and how it silently undermines your confidence [00:29:18] What is decision hunting, and how does it unlock real momentum? [00:33:55] Why one small outreach can reconnect you to a lost part of yourself [00:40:25] The surprising key to building lasting habits (hint: it's not willpower) [00:44:00] The “Reverse Golden Rule” that every people-pleaser needs to hear [00:53:36] Oliver's favorite meditation for starting from sanity Episode Takeaways: You're not lazy — you're stuck in the illusion of finding a perfect decision. Accepting your finitude might be your greatest advantage. Momentum doesn't come from thinking your way into action. Start small. Make a decision. Any decision. The most powerful personal brand you can build is the one where you drop the mask. If your perfectionism is driving your productivity, it's probably also driving your burnout. You can't outsource meaning — you have to make the hard trade-offs and choose your consequences intentionally. Start embodying who you want to be now, not later.

Buried in Day-to-Day Tasks? Learn How Deep Work Sessions Can Boost Your Productivity and Business Results What if I told you that dedicating just one day a month to deep work could completely change your business trajectory? In this episode, I'm sharing why deep work – focused, distraction-free time for high-impact activities – is the key to making those strategic decisions that will truly grow your business! Too many entrepreneurs (myself included!) spend time reacting rather than intentionally designing their business growth. I remember spending almost a year in reaction mode – something happened, I fixed it, something else happened, I troubleshooted...and I promise you, it was not my best revenue year! In this episode, I walk you through my clear framework for making deep work a habit and share real examples of how it's revolutionized my business – from creating an amazing leadership team to making tough decisions about downsizing. These weren't always comfortable choices, but they've absolutely set my business up to thrive. HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE: 1️⃣ Deep Work Creates Clarity – When you remove distractions, you can make those important decisions with confidence! It's all about working ON your business, not IN it – that's how you know you're doing it right. 2️⃣ One Day a Month is a Game Changer – Imagine 12 strategic work days in a year. They add up, especially since most of us never make time for this! You don't have time for deep work – you MAKE time for it. 3️⃣ Your Environment Matters – If you feel distracted at home (or tempted to take a nap – no judgement!), change your location. Set boundaries with your team, turn off notifications, and avoid "fake productivity" that keeps you in the weeds.
